Thirty-five thousand words so far
I’m still waiting on another contract from Harlequin for my Love Inspired Amish romances. I’ve been waiting for months. It’s frustrating and not a little nerve-wracking, since the first thought that goes through my brain is they’re trying to tell me my writing isn’t good enough.
But a note to my agent soothed my frayed nerves. I wrote, “I have to admit, [my editor's] silence in the face of a possible new contract worries me. Should I be concerned?” – to which he replied, “No. Stop worrying. She’s not being silent, she’s being busy. [smiley-face emoticon]” Clearly this agent is used to dealing with insecure writers.
In fact, Harlequin is by no means ignoring me. I’ve had emails from editorial assistants regarding various components about books currently in the pipeline (finalizing artwork, etc.), and a note to my editor confirmed she hopes to get to my latest proposal soon, but she’s behind in her reading. I have to remember they’re dealing with controlled mayhem on the editorial side, and the world doesn’t revolve around me.
So I’ve tried to be patient. And I’m writing. I’m writing a lot. Currently I’m participating in “Camp NaNoWriMo” and so far I’m 35,000 words into a 70,000-word manuscript. My hope to submit the final story in a month or so.
Besides, it’s beastly hot outside (107F as I write this), and the keyboard is a useful and productive alternative when it’s too miserable outside to do anything else. Onward!
